I had an amazing time on this joyful connection yoga retreat. Rebecca puts so much thought into all aspects of the experience. The accommodations, meals, daily activities and of course the yoga flow. Her playlists also add to the experience. So fun! She brings the joyful energy and shares it will all. I highly recommend.

Rebecca thinks of everything and executes flawlessly making her retreats a life changing, wonderful experience. This is my second Joyful Connection Retreat in La Ventana, Mexico with Rebecca. I will continue to attend her retreats as long as she hosts them! Each one has been special in its own way. This experience was very special for me as I was with my son and two good friends (three including Rebecca!). The weather, the people, the venue, the retreat execution and content, all perfect. The venue, Casa Tara is such a beautiful location with comfortable and lovely accommodations. The pool area is relaxing and so scenic (overlooks the ocean). The staff is wonderful, the food is adventurous, fresh, healthy and delicious. The yoga spaces are magical. For me, being by the ocean is always my favorite and doing yoga and other group activities in this location just takes my breath away even thinking back on it. We did so much more than yoga. We had great group circles where we learned about ourselves and the others, focusing on how to bring and maintain joy in our lives. We meditated, reflected, moved our bodies. We did a sunrise paddleboard and yes, I learned to paddleboard! Even did some yoga on the board! We took a great little nature walk to learn about the cactus and other plant life in the area. We even did a workout on the beach early one morning. There were so many lovely yoga sessions, familiar and new yoga poses, games, massages, lessons, laughs, tears and there was lots and lots of JOY. I highly recommend you TREAT yourself to a Rebecca Niziol reTREAT. *****FIVE STARS++***

Rebecca’s Joyful Connection yoga retreat was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The planning was incredibly thoughtful and well executed. Every detail felt intentional, from the flow of the schedule to the small touches, that made the entire retreat feel seamless and welcoming. Rebecca is a fantastic leader. She creates a space that feels inclusive, supportive, and makes sure everyone feels seen and comfortable, no matter their experience level. Her ability to bring people together and foster real connection is truly special. The retreat struck a perfect balance between yoga, connection-focused activities, and fun. There was plenty of time to move, reflect, laugh, and simply enjoy being present, without ever feeling rushed or overstructured. It felt both grounding and energizing at the same time. Overall, this retreat exceeded expectations. You can tell how much care, heart, and attention Rebecca puts into her work. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for meaningful connection, thoughtful movement, and a joyful, well-rounded retreat!

The whole experience with Rebecca was superb. Everything was wonderful... the welcome bag, delicious food, amazing soul-filled activities, rich and transformative circles, yoga, movement and beautiful music choices. I enjoyed the group of women that gathered for this special retreat. We also had time for personal reflection or activities. I enjoyed it immensely and would definitely join Rebecca on another adventure in the future.

This retreat came to me magically and with some help from the divine. I didn't know Rebecca when I signed up. Other than a 15 minute phone call with her and a look at her online practices. I really chose this retreat because it was a time I could get away and it was the right length. I will note that after talking to her on the phone, I felt so moved by her generous and kind spirit that it was a full body yes! I'm a believer in fate, but now I am believer at a whole new level. Rebecca is genius, kindness, love, spirituality, positive energy and so much fun all wrapped into a beautiful human being. She curated every moment of our time together in a way that felt manageable, with plenty of time to be alone if needed. She lovingly held each of us every single day and anticipated our individuals needs. She had assistance, but it is still mind-blowing how thoughtfully she assembled the entire event. If you are questioning whether to do this, whether to invest in yourself this way, I encourage you to take the leap without hesitation. You will find what you need on this retreat: incredible food, friendship and support, nurturing and intentional yoga practices, a beautiful landscape, a chance to be light and laugh and a chance to get reacquainted with yourself.

Rebecca creates an experience that is truly exceptional, down to every little detail. Her level of intention from the location to the food to the service is unmatched, and she never disappoints. What I love most is the way she leads the retreat. In my everyday life, I’m deeply immersed in the business world, constantly moving and thinking. But when I’m at her retreat, I’m able to fully disconnect, be present, and truly receive. She creates a space that brings out a completely different side of me one that feels grounded, open, fun and deeply connected at the same time. Her energy is radiant. She brings so much joy, fun, and light into everything she does, and it’s contagious. You can feel how much she genuinely gives to each experience, and that’s what makes it so special. One of the most incredible parts of her retreats is the people she brings together. Rebecca has a true gift for connection. Every time I attend, I leave with meaningful friendships that continue beyond the retreat, people who are now genuinely part of my life. She is an incredible connector, and the community she creates is just as powerful as the experience itself. This is my second retreat with Rebecca, and I feel incredibly grateful and honored to be part of it. I would highly recommend her retreats to anyone who wants to truly treat themselves, not just to a getaway, but to a meaningful, magical experience filled with connection and transformation. Thank you, Rebecca 🤍

I went on Rebecca’s Joyful Connection Retreat 2025. It was a retreat that nourished my soul! Weeks before leaving for the retreat, I knew I was in for something special. The preparation was thorough and made me feel ready for a new experience. The venue exceeded every expectation. I left feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and radiating a deep sense of inner peace. Rebecca’s attention to detail allowed me to escape from the everyday, and focus on opening the channels I had blocked. Thank you for the professional photographer, the delicious and nourishing meals, fun juices as well as for the opportunity to connect with fellow retreat participants. What a warm and supportive community connecting through yoga, feeling and seeing all of us open up and rediscover the simple joys of life. I can’t wait for the next one! I attended Rebecca’s joyful yoga retreat 2026 for the second year in a row. The retreat in 2025 gave me such a new calmer perspective on life that I had to go again. For the second trip, I was less afraid/apprehensive. Rebecca did a great job at catering to the size of the group with the content as well as the excursions. I was impressed with the variety from this year that allowed me to build on what I experienced from last year. The atmosphere at the venue was miraculous; so much so I can’t wait for others to try it for themselves! It’s been a life-changing experience for me!❤️

Working with Rebecca as the photographer on her latest Joyful Connection retreat was an absolutely incredible experience. Her professionalism shown through every step of the way. Being able to drop in as well as photograph the experience for the other guests was a dream. Rebecca's expert facilitation and planning made it easy to capture intimate images of the guests without disruption. Everything flowed smoothly from day to day and activity to activity. I 100% recommend her retreat offerings to others and am excited to work with her again in the future!
